It all started March 19, 2011 when I purchased the truck completely stock.




Around July of 2011 I ordered dimpled and slotted rotors with ceramic pads, 17x9 -12mm Fuel Hostages and 35x12.5r17 Trail Grappler M/T and a Rough Country 6" Lift






First Sound System:



Before I got rid of the 17s

 

I was told real ganstas aint ever scared so I went to 22x11 -25mm offset XD Diesels and added the adjustable Bilstein Struts, they put the front at about 7.5" of lift.

 

Before anybody calls it a street queen..... She sees plenty of mud, even on 22s



Headlight build, Q45 Retrofit, Flashtech colorshift halos, painted to match

 

Custom Leather Interior




Second Sound System









Trim Pieces on the side to make it a little more interesting



Foam Padding on top for comfort



Ported of course, tuned to 35hz


My buddy Vinny schooling me on wrapping


Carpet on the sides so it transitions to the carpet on the floor

Vinny admiring the work:



Trim pieces are getting wrapped in black 4 way stretch vinyl

 

All those PA style speakers are going to be fiberglassed on the doors:

Back to life




Sound system sounds good:

 

After more trouble than most people would go through I got the only set of 22" simulated beadlocks for XD Diesels to KMCs knowledge:

 

That weekend at Red Creek NOLA turned out a little expensive and took the wind out of my sails for a little while, but I still have big plans and big dreams.

Two broken motor mounts, messed up the rear seal, messed up the transmission, broke the 4x4, locked up calipers etc..... $5700 later shes back to new

Details on the transmission:

Banner Kit
High Flow Filter
High Performance Band
Billet Torque Converter (not sure on the stall but he told me he got the lowest available, higher than factory for sure though)
High performance shift kit
EPC Solenoid
TCC Solenoid
Heavy Duty Upgrade on kit -Master Overhaul
Updated and Modified Servos
Recalibrated Valve Plate for shift firmness
Updated Valve body
Transfer Case Reseal Kit
Transmission Fluid

600hp capable
3 year/50,000 mile warranty

 

Future plans 2 18" Level 3 PSI on 6k wattts RMS in a 4th order blow through, need to put the headers on/exhaust. Picking up a 2nd 5.4L to build up

 

Once again, love it!

 

Appreciate it bud

 

I thought your truck was just exterior amazing but the interior with that sound system is just beautiful!
